Police Court.

Judge Buckley had an unusually long
calendar to dispose of yesterday, and con-
sequently the session of the Court was quite
lengthy. The examination case of Andy
Burns, charged with grand larceny, will
take place to-day. William Onsley, col
ored individual, charged with battery, was
dismissed, much to the Joy of few of his
colored friends, who had assembled to wit
ness the trial. Joseph Corkin was drunk
when arrested, and consequently that
charge stood against him. He left the
PRISON leaving a five-dollar deposit behind.
Thomas Burke, an unfortunate drunk, was
discharged, on promising that he would go
to work. James McCabe, booked for dis
turbance of the peace, was also dismissed.
A similar case against David Munsen passed
off smoothly on the defendants paying a
fine of So. James Egan was found guilty
of disturbing the peace, and was sentenced
to pay fine of 500, or in default the same
number of days in the County Jail. Thos.
Griffin forfeited a live-dollar deposit for be-
ing drunk and not answering his name in
Court. Kate Dawson was acquitted of both
charges against her-that of embezzlement
and petit larceny-but her comrade, Mrs.
Hughes, was convicted of the latter offense,
and will receive judgment to-day. John
Hill forfeited $50 as deposits for not APP
pearing TO answer to two charges of battery.

pected to be present. but was prevented by

| importance and pleasure to the craft. The
officers of the lodge in which the exempli-
| fication took place were warmly praised
and the fraternity of Sacramento congratu-
| lated upon the result and the superior
| standard of excellence maintained. At the
close of the work the audience adjourned
| to the banquet hall, where the call from
| labor to refreshment was honored around
Widespread tables, and the festal hours,
| Illuminated with marked eloquence
and wit, continued until past low

reception to the Grand officers and others
present was also in honor of the retiring
Master of the Lodge, W. E. Gerber, who
was called upon to preside Past Grand
Master N Greene Curtis was master of
ceremonies, and as such presided in his
usual mastery and matchless manner.

to the craft and the occasion
had been made by Professor w. w.
Anderson, Hon. NJ. NJ. Estee, Hon. VIM.
Johnston and Hon. NJ. d. Boruck, Judge
Curtis, in an effective and touching address,
presented on behalf of the lodge, beauti-
full Past Masters jewel to Mr.. Gerbtr, which
part of the programme was unquestionably
an entire surprise to the retiring Master.
The recipient, after hesitating,.to recover
from the surprise, expressed his apprecia-
ton and thanks for the token and
its expression of appreciation by the
fraternity, and called upon Past Grand
Master E. c. Atkinson to respond in his
behalf, which was done in most fitting
manner. The jewel is a solid gold jewel
of the Past Masters design, with blazing
star and heavy diamond setting in the
center. After the presentation further re-
sponses were called for and made by w. B
Hamilton, Past Master Richard Allen, Of
